The deepening housing crisis in Ireland is having profound social, political and economic impacts on equality, wellbeing and health. Hearn contextualizes the Irish housing crisis within its broader global context by examining the origins of the contemporary crisis in terms of the extension of neoliberalism, marketization and financialization in housing. Exposing the catastrophic depth of situation, he brings to the fore the personal voices, stories and perspectives of those most affected and the activists who are campaigning on the issue. This book provides innovative global solutions for the crisis in housing and the development of housing initiatives that properly address inequality, climate change and citizenship exclusion.
